so, if we use military force, is to beat us not the israelis. if the israelis their biggest airplane is an f- 15. military strike against hardened nuclear sites is a complicated endeavor. from their point of view, it is better than doing nothing. from my point of view, if we engaged in military operations as the last resort, the united states should have a goal of changing the regime. not by invading the country, but i wanted military strike from land and sea -- but from launching a military strike from land and sea and that the revolutionary guard ceases to be an effective organizatio to punch back. if you have to use military force, i think our goal should be not only to neuter their nuclear program, but to destroy the regime's ability to fight back against our troops in the region hand against our allies. that, ladies and gentlemen, is no small matter to contelate. that is a very serious escalating step that i would now like to go down the road as much as anybody in this room. thatf you'll believe sanctions will not work, i am here to tell yo

thank you for joining us. while this hearing is about too big to fail i would like to go back to the broader issue of the crisis if i might. would you describe for us the role that the federal reserve place in monitoring or managing credit standards in our country? >> as i mentioned earlier, the federal reserve has had a role in consumer protection, so we have created rules for example on requiring documentation, escrow accounts and other standards of underwriting that apply to mortgages. the other main area i can think of is like other bank regulators we want to make sure banks -- is their decision what risks to take and what loans to make, that they are adequately capitalized to deal with any losses that might occur. so we are pressing on the one hand for stronger sensitive capital standards to tie the amount of capital banks have to hold to the risk of the loans that they make and therefore if they make a riskier loans they need to hold more capital and judge for themselves if it makes sense to do that and

none of us are. in the old days before we knew what we knew today, everyone recognizes that if a soldier was wounded or lost a leg or arm, there is no debate. that was a cause of war. that soldier got all the care and benefits he or she needed. the difficulty is that the world has changed significantly as a result of chemical exposure. let us not forget that when agent orange was first used, our friends said it was benign and it was not a problem. am i correct? >> to my recollection. >> i am sure the military would not have used this chemical if they had known. at the end of the gameday, a pon our own people. who is smart enough to know exactly the impact? because they were exposed to agent orange, if they combined it to a genetic predisposition. could it have led to another illness? of course it could have. who is smart enough to make a correlation? i am not. i doubt you are. it is not saying the u.s. soldier put your le on the line. we will give you the benefit of the doubt. we are going to assume

we use the water as if it is cheaper than dirt, because it is for those of us that use it. if we could create small water markets, we could move water from relatively low value to relatively high value uses, getting rid of a good deal of the misallocation between urban, industrial, and agricultural uses, and improving the environment. in washington, idaho, and montana, the focus on using markets to improve the flow, purchasing water, they are doing it without the high and dry result, without driving up the agriculture. it can and will work if we give them a chance. can you expect this -- i will wrap up with this -- can you expect this to happen if you turn it over to your local politician? hold your breath and you will not look long -- you will not live long if you wait for that. these incentives are not part of the equation. cleaning up arsenic is what it is about, and if it costs the city money, that is the problem for new board. or maybe we will throw them a subsidy, in which case it is your problem. politicians are not likely to bring forward market reforms that will ma
